NBC News: Rob Reiner's son Nick arrested and booked on suspicion of murder in parents' deaths.
I never cared for Reiner's self-righteous, loud, obnoxious, divisive, one-sided political raging at all. Not. One. Bit. And I've posted on it, belittled him and mocked him.
But for Fat Orange to say, "Rob Reiner died from severe TDS," is beneath the underbelly of contempt.
Mister "NO NEW WARS" has us poised for battle against Iran, Venezuela; add now Syria AND potentially Columbia, all on the behalf of his Puppet Master Netanyahu and Israel.
In addition to this behavior, I ask you, WHEN has a U.S. President attacked members of their OWN PARTY the way Fat Orange went after MTG and Thomas Massie? NEVER! When has a president campaigned against their own party with such venom and animosity as Trump's treatment AGAINST MTG and Massie? Again, NEVER.
No diss to my Blogroll and Links, (and those who link here), I know some remain MAGA-loyalists. I get it, I do.
All I ask is this: That you remember that I would apply the SAME STANDARD to Biden, Obama, W Bush, Clinton, etc and anyone else in politics or the public eye. I shouldn't have to say it as often as it seems I do: I equally apply everyone to the same standard.
I've already decided I'm not voting next year, but I wouldn't at all mind seeing Dems overwhelmingly win back both House and Senate and ride Fat Orange like the 2 shekel whore that he is.
I'm not the only one disappointed by Fat Orange and his RINO cucks.

Breitbart: Pentagon Reveals It Actually Has 2,000 Troops in Syria, Not 900.
The Pentagon on Thursday admitted there are actually 2,000 American troops in Syria, not the 900 it previously said were in the country.
[.]
Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder characterized the higher troop count as a “surprise” — without clarifying if Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin or President Joe Biden knew there were 2,000, not 900 U.S. troops in Syria.
Ryder said at a briefing Thursday:
As you know, we have been briefing you regularly that there are approximately 900 U.S. troops deployed to Syria. In light of the situation in Syria and the significant interest, we recently learned that those numbers were higher, and so asked to look into it, I learned today that in fact there are approximately 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria.
"We recently learned..." Yeah. Sure. What else is this administration not telling us? The Pentagon Press Sec is, "surprised" upon learning the number of U.S. troops is higher than he thought, or was told, or he's plain lying. What does Lloyd Autism or Herr Biden have to say about this?

BBC: US scraps $10m bounty for arrest of Syria's new leader Sharaa.
The US has scrapped a $10m (£7.9m) reward for the arrest of Syria's de facto leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, following meetings between senior diplomats and representatives from Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).
Assistant Secretary of State Barbara Leaf said the discussion with Sharaa was "very productive", and he came across as "pragmatic".
Someone considered a terrorist by both U.S. and Israel is now their best Fren. What a cohencidence. What are the odds the U.S and Israel find a terrorist who is,"very productive and pragmatic." It'll all work out for the best, no doubt.

Breitbart: 77 House Democrats Sign Letter That Could Trigger Arms Embargo on Israel.
Seventy-seven Democrats in the House of Representatives signed a letter Thursday accusing Israel of violating human rights law, disagreeing with the Biden-Harris administration and potentially triggering an arms embargo on Israel.
The signatories to the letter include well-known left-wing Jewish Democrats, such as Reps. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) and Sara Jacobs (D-CA). The latter is romantically involved with former Democratic congressional candidate and former Obama administration official Ammar Campa-Najjar, who is the grandson of a notorious Palestinian terrorist.
The letter claims to support Israel’s right to self-defense, then undermines that claim by arguing that Israel is not complying with international human rights law and humanitarian law, which would mean that the U.S. would have to cut off arms sales to the Jewish state, even as it faces a war on several fronts against terrorists and the Iranian regime.
[.]
The effort is backed by the left-wing, George Soros-funded J Street group, which often opposes Israel in Congress.
Whether these Libs mean what they say or if it's just optics, that's your call.

ABC (AUS): What is the Golan Heights and what does it mean to Israel and Syria?
Israel's occupation of the Golan Heights is not recognised by any country other than the United States, and the IDF's deployment in the buffer zone outside of it effectively amounts to Israel driving deeper into Syrian territory.
[.]
Syria still holds part of the Golan Heights and has demanded that Israel withdraw from the rest of it. Israel has refused, citing security concerns.
BBC: Israel plans to expand Golan settlements after fall of Assad.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the move was necessary because a "new front" had opened up on Israel's border with Syria after the fall of the Assad regime to an Islamist-led rebel alliance.
Netanyahu said he wanted to double the population of the Golan Heights, which Israel seized during the 1967 Six-Day War and is considered illegally occupied under international law.
[.]
There are more than 30 Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights, which are home to an estimated 20,000 people. They are considered illegal under international law, which Israel disputes.
It's land theft, it's what Israel does.

"Benjamin Netanyahu" - NetanyaWHO? His REAL NAME is Benzion Mileikowsky, keep reading. He's charged with corruption, bribery, fraud and attempts to garner favorable press coverage. I know...I know...SHOCKING!
Al Jazeera: Benjamin Netanyahu’s corruption trial, what you need to know.
The Israeli prime minister is facing corruption charges that could see him sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.
[.]
He is up against three separate cases of corruption filed in 2019: Case 1000, Case 2000, and Case 4000, which include allegations of bribery, fraud, and breach of trust.
He denies any wrongdoing and claims to be the victim of a politically orchestrated “witch-hunt” by rivals and the media to remove him from office. [Of course The Son of Perdition Plays The Victim Card! LMAO! 🤣 - DD]
[.]
Case 1000:
Also known as the “Gifts Affair”, this case charges the Israeli prime minister with fraud and breach of trust.
It involves allegations that Netanyahu and his wife Sara received lavish gifts from two wealthy businessmen in exchange for political favours.
The businessmen are Arnon Milchan, an Israeli Hollywood film producer, and Australian billionaire James Packer. The gifts allegedly include champagne and cigars.
Milchan testified that he provided gifts to Netanyahu in June 2020.
Netanyahu is accused of advancing Milchan’s interests by helping secure a United States visa after speaking to US government officials.
He is also accused of advancing a tax exemption law that could have benefitted Israelis abroad, including Milchan.
[.]
The goods were valued at approximately 700,000 shekels ($186,000)[.]
[.]
Case 2000:
It says Netanyahu made a deal with businessman Aron Mozes, a controlling shareholder of the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth, for favourable coverage in exchange for legislation to slow the growth of the rival Israel Hayom newspaper.
This case also charges him with fraud and breach of trust.
[.]
Case 4000:
This case indicts Netanyahu for granting regulatory favours to Israeli telecommunications company Bezeq in return for positive coverage of him and his wife on a news website controlled by its former chairman.
Netanyahu, in his capacity as communications minister at the time, allegedly provided regulatory benefits to Shaul Elovitch, the owner of Bezeq who also controlled the news website Walla.
The benefits reportedly included mergers and financial gains.
In exchange, Elovitch provided favourable coverage of Netanyahu and his wife.

Information Liberation: New Film 'Atrocity Inc' Exposes How Israel Lied About October 7th to Justify Genocide.
The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal on Monday released a new documentary film titled "Atrocity Inc" he made in collaboration with Propaganda & Co and Sut Jhally which exposes how Israel spread atrocity propaganda about the October 7th attacks to justify committing genocide in Gaza.
[.]
The film exposes how Israel lied about Hamas beheading 40 babies on October 7th, lied about Hamas "cooking babies in ovens," lied about Hamas committing "mass r*pe," and killed many of their own people under the Hannibal Directive.
The film further documents how the Jewish state is r*ping and torturing Palestinian prisoners in "torture camps" in Israel with widespread public support among Israeli Jews.
[.]
there were no r*pes on October 7 as confirmed by Haaretz and others citing Israeli officials themselves, but actual mass systematic pedophilic r*pe of babies, children, girls, boys, women and men by your precious Israelis has been confirmed and documented: https://t.co/ZXZLGLVBzj pic.twitter.com/MKJny079e2

Israel and Netanyahu sold the world a pack of lies about the events of October 7, 2023. Their puppets in government and media parroted those lies around the world, justifying Netanyahu's genocide of Palestinians. Yes, it's that simple.
Blumenthal btw, is about as Far Left as you can get. He's also Jewish, not some Right Wing Hitler Lovin' White Christian Nationalist Nazi, which is the first thought you Netanyahu/Israel boot-lickers leapt to, right? 🤣
Most of you won't watch it. You'd rather believe lies than admit you're wrong.

The Cradle: Syria attributes deadly Golan strike to Israel, denounces attempts to expand war.
Twelve Syrian children were killed when a missile fell on a soccer field in Majdal Shams in the occupied Golan Heights on Saturday night. Israel immediately blamed Hezbollah and rejected the Lebanese resistance group’s statement on 27 July, categorically denying its involvement in the incident.
[.]
Eyewitnesses at the scene reported that it was an Israeli Iron Dome interceptor missile that fell on the field, according to an Al-Arabi TV correspondent who spoke with a member of Israel’s ambulance service, Magen David Adom.
A military expert cited by Sputnik said, “the missile that exploded in Majdal Shams was 100 percent Israeli, and we are faced with two possibilities: either a malfunction in the performance of the Israeli air defense systems, or a deliberate launch to achieve specific goals.”
I'm going with, "a deliberate launch to achieve specific goals." It's obvious.
Ask: Why would Hezbollah target Majdal Shams, a population who identify as Syrian Arabs, who refuse Israeli citizenship?
Look at a map, see where it's located. Why TF would Hezbollah target it?
How much you wanna bet Magen David Adom disappears in the near future because he's telling the truth?
From the above story:
Residents of the town have refused Israeli citizenship and continue to view themselves as Syrians.
Remember the initial denial by Israel that their own were killed by IDF on October 7, 2023? Only to be proven a lie from Israel, when the IDF invoked the Hannibal Directive on October 7.
Don't want to click and read the Hannibal Directive link? TLDR: Hannibal is the "Israel will kill their own rather see them taken as hostages" directive.
That's what happened at Majdal Shams. Any reason to justify the madness of blood-lusting Netanyahu and continuing the Israeli Military Industrial Complex Campaign of Terror and Genocide.
This is the BEST analysis of October 7, 2023 and the history of Palestine and the creation of the state of Israel.
It's not a lengthy read, but it is detailed and footnoted.
It's excellent, you should read it and bookmark it.
VoltaireNet: The October 7 narrative contradicted by history.
By 8:00, news agencies around the world were broadcasting images of the attack [8]. However, the Israeli security forces did not intervene until 9.45 am.
[.]
[...] Israel enables the most extensive money-laundering operations and serves as a haven for some of the world’s greatest criminals.
An official of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) told me that he was a waiter in the bar of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. One day, he witnessed the arrival of a group of diamond dealers, who had arrived without passing through customs and were being escorted by the military. These men and a few customers exchanged diamonds and cash, then left incognito. This kind of deal could not take place in any other state.
Diamond dealers? Well they must be those White Christian Nationalists that run the world. Who else could it be?
IRNA: Pro-Palestine activists heckle Hillary Clinton.
[...] one of the men in the audience interrupted Clinton’s speech at Columbia University calling her: “ You a war criminal”.
“The people of Libya, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Palestine and also the people of America will not forgive you”, the man shouted at Clinton.
While the security forces were forcibly removing this protester from the lecture hall, he kept repeating slogans such as "Palestine is free" and "You will burn in fire."
Clinton tried to turn the attention of the audience by saying that “shouting doesn't solve a problem". But another protester interrupted her speech.
[.]
Clinton who is a die-hard supporter and backer of the Zionist regime faced similar protests during a speech at Columbia University in October.
Same story, different source, additional coverage ⏬ :
Daily Telegraph: ‘You are a war criminal!’: Protesters disrupt Hillary Clinton speech.
US Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield spoke after Clinton at Friday’s event. She too was interrupted by protesters, who chanted “free, free Palestine” as they were escorted from the hall.
Absolutely a Zionist War Criminal.
For the link to the video referenced above and more tweets, see story at Twitchy: Biden DRAGGED for Lying About Son's Death to Parents of Soldier Who Died in Syria.
It's not Biden's dementia or senility causing his void of empathy and sympathy for others. He's always been this way; selfish.
He lied for years about the circumstances of the death of his first wife, claiming she was, "killed by a drunk driver." The person who hit the car of his first wife was sober. Biden created the lie and ran with it. The likely cause was determined that Neilia (Biden) accelerated through an intersection.
He's repeated the lie "Beau dying in Iraq" for several years. He knows he's lying and doesn't care. It's all about Joe. He's a pathological liar with five military deferments for "asthma."
Biden wants you to believe no matter what hardship you've experienced, he's suffered the same if not worse and he's anxious to lie to you all about it while completely ignoring your current state of grief and heartache.
Brietbart (Aug. 2023): Mother of Marine Killed in Afghanistan: Biden Said He Brought Son Beau ‘Home in a Flag-Draped Coffin’.
Stolen Valor by proxy to gain sympathy and voter support is what Biden does. And he lies. Have I mentioned he's a liar?
Sure wish Biden would mention how he flunked Third Grade as often as he mentions other moments from his past. Reporters never ask him or Kareem Abdul-Jean Perrier about this. So puzzling.
News reports that Biden will be visiting East Palestine, OH, one year after the devastating train derailment. May he be met by a town void of anyone wanting to see him. Maybe people will line-up along highways and streets with signs and flags of FJB, equally appropriate.
Why are they silent on the U.S. funding WAR in Ukraine? Where are the protests? Where is the "no-sanctions" crowd? They never failed to show up in the past. What's different this time?
Silence = complicity. The Left always loved war, they're just now brave enough to openly admit it. War during a Dem Admin is fine. Can't happen during a Repub Admin, though.
